The SHAV is a useless feature requested by very few people. We would like to control who is in our tank, when... Not just have no one in our tank ever.

You get a great random in your tank, they shoot enemies, they jump out to hack objectives while you watch their back, then they can't get back in because some useless numpty has ignored the objective and jumped in to stare into the sky the rest of the match and pew pew the MCC.

When no one is willing to use the small turrets, it would be nice if I could use them to cover the team, rather than having to keep my eye on the blue dots to make sure they aren't getting too close to the tank, for fear of the most likely outcome - Another numpty.

Very few people? Please, 2/3rd's of the tankers have been requesting this since a least open beta. You don't want blueberries in your tank, fill it with huckleberries or drive the one that only has one seat. A tanker and the gunners shouldn't be getting out unless they're recalling the tank for whatever reason (and for this, recalling a vehicle should kick the occupants out as soon as the button is pressed). Your job isn't to hack anything, that's the infantries job. Do what a tank is supposed to do and If the dipshit blueberry infantry isn't doing their jobs, well tough sh!t because that's something we all have to deal with. If you or your gunners get out to do the job of someone else well that's on the person that gets out.

If you or your gunners get out to do the job of someone else well that's on the person that gets out. Most people have been asking for lock, not to have a single seater. There is a difference. Your argument doesn't make sense: "we all have to deal with bad teammates so there shouldn't be vehicle lock." You are stating that a feature shouldn't be implemented because of something that has nothing to do with the feature in question, rather than showing flaws in the merit of the feature being suggested. It is like saying "because you are sterile, you don't need condoms." There is more than just a single issue to be concerned with. The SHAV does help those that wanted to be singular. However it doesn't stop vehicle theft nor the seat being taken by someone who isn't in your Squad. You know what I have heard, over and over, as a Tanker? "Get out and get the objective" or to have one of my gunners do it. If we could lock vehicles by Squad, that would be a possibility but the risk of leaving your friends out high and dry means it isn't worth doing. "This is B.S! This is B.S! I paid money!
